Delhi BJP Says Women’s Allowance Is Imminent as Panel Finalizes Rules

Overview

• Delhi BJP president Virendra Sachdeva said eligible women will begin receiving a monthly payment soon, with a committee working to finalize the scheme’s rules.
• The BJP cited nine months of actions—waiving water-bill surcharges, issuing GST refunds, adding DTC buses, improving Pink Ticket access, building over 75 Arogya Mandirs, and raising old-age pensions—to bolster credibility.
• Delhi Congress chief Devender Yadav alleged the government has not delivered the promised ₹2,500 monthly support for women and labeled the pledge a joke.
• Congress announced a citywide campaign distributing dummy cheques of ₹2,500 bearing Chief Minister Rekha Gupta’s photo across all 70 Assembly constituencies and 12 wards.
• The exchange precedes the Nov. 30 MCD by-elections, with the BJP highlighting eight women candidates in 12 wards and defending the AQI agency’s independence while attributing pollution failures to prior AAP rule.
